First of don't be like me and panic if mike is cool in his nature. He understand your case and he's on top on everything. He's know what he's doing from the being to the end. He's worth every dime I paid. He calm swagger is his forte. No jag TDS lawyer can represent you like mike. I almost lost my re...tirement after 19.5 months. With mikes help it was saved along with my dignity and self respect.

Mr. Waddington had the upmost respect, professionalism and trustworthiness during my court proceedings. He kept me very informed and really cared about my case which made me feel safe with my decision to hire him. I am happy to say that with his help my charges were dropped after the Article 32 hea...ring and now I can get back to my normal life after a year plus. I would highly recommend Mr. Waddington.

Thanks to Mr. Waddington I am able to continue my career, have my freedom and life back! Mr. Waddington took my case with only a two months’ notice and quickly gathered all the required information to adequately defend me and prove my innocence against very serious false allegations. He kept me inf...ormed every step of the way and made sure I felt comfortable and at ease. He was genuinely concerned and did everything possible to expose the truth. His experience and knowledge of the UCMJ was the reason I retained him. After the first conversation there was no doubt that HE was the person for the job. Despite him being a very busy attorney he made me feel like I was his only case. There is no question; Mr. Michael Waddington should be your first and only option if you’re in need of professional representation. Thank You Mr. Waddington!!

I was notified that I would be facing a Board of Inquiry. While my military assigned lawyer was competent there were a number of things that concerned me. First, my military lawyer had only conducted one Board of Inquiry in his entire career and second, he was significantly more junior than the gover...nment lawyer. I felt that it was in my best interest to retain the best possible representation I could and decided on retaining civilian counsel as well. Mr. Waddington's handling of my case was nothing less than superb. From our first conversation Mr. Waddington’s vast experience and expertise were evident. He developed the strategy that presented the strongest defense possible and allowed me to tell my story – something that had not occurred during the previous investigation and non-judicial punishment procedure. The end result was that I was able to be honorably discharged from the Marine Corps. I would strongly recommend Mr. Waddington to anyone who is in need of representation. When your future is on the line you want nothing less than the best.

Our Journey through hell began almost two years ago. My husband was accused of abusive sexual contact, assault and battery, and indecent language. With my husbands 16 year career in the Air Force on the line plus multiple years in prison if found guilty, we knew we had to hire the best attorney to ha...ndle our case. Michael, was always very attentive and believed in my husband from the start. Even though Michael is a very busy man, he never made us feel like anything less than a priority. At the Article 32 hearing Michael decided to go all in. He proved that my husbands accuser was a liar, manipulator and home wrecker. The case was recommended for dismissal, but due to political pressure the case was still pushed forward to General Court Martial. At the court martial Michael went in and carpet bombed the prosecutions entire case and destroyed the credibility of all witnesses. Michael was amazing, and put the prosecution to shame. If you are looking for a non bias, honest, trustworthy lawyer then look no further. He will fight for you and your family until the end. We are truly thankful to have found such an amazing attorney. Do not hesitate a second longer, get Michael on your side. You can't afford not to. Thank you Michael.
